Nobody knows if our team is better yet. We still haven’t seen them all play. We will probably know by the end of the year what our strongest 11 is. 

[Awayfromhomered]

Very

[Turra red]

Way too early to say as a whole but I'd say wingbacks are possibly stronger. Despite liking mccrorie I feel devlin has a better delivery and a similar work ethic. Hayes can't cross or pass so mcgarry wins there albeit Hayes works hard. 

[redstrummer]

Dadia and Williams look to be daft signings

[englishred]

We need to wait until December before judging unless we have a complete collapse before then.  With so many new signings its going to take time

Criminal negligence tbh. A LOT of our money blown on these charlatans.

 

NOT GOOD ENOUGH

aye devlin who’s played in that position for about 20 minutes since he got here 

[Helmet]

Depends on the formation as well doesn’t it.

I suppose for argument sake we should only compare a 352 line up.

Personally I’d be more interested in a discussion about our best line up right now than comparing it to a line up from last year that probably only lasted for a handful of games.

[ab24_5qh]

[Hoofball]

Jensen LB with McDonald and Ruby at CB. Gartenmann I don’t rate, club should return him and Williams to parent clubs all go all out for Pollock on a permanent.

The subs bench is significantly lacking in depth when Morris and or Duk need subbed

[aberdeen1970]

Morris wouldn't be in my strongest 11.

Its a sign of how desperate things are that he's even being considered as a starter for Aberdeen 

                      Roos 

Devlin. Rubezic MacDonald Jensen 

                 Polvara. Barron 

McGrath.      Clarkson.          Duk 

                       Miovski

Without Morris the team is significantly lacking in width as I don’t think McGrath has ever played off the right

It's not perfect by any means. I just can't take Morris seriously as a starter. 

We've got a poor squad overall imo.

Massive holes in the squad Robson has built and if he’s not gone soon the next manager won’t get a chance to sort it

[johnstrac]

See how everyone on here picks a back 4 !

And with him it's significantly lacking in quality.

Could play Duncan instead*

 

* still the same outcome

Absolutely. Far too many concerns.

[The Hulk]

I’d be tempted to chuck in the boy Hamilton at left back (in a 4-3-3) on Tuesday night. The fearlessness of youth could give us an injection.

Roos

Devlin Rubezic Macdonald Hamilton

Polvara Barron Clarkson

Vinny Miovski Duk

M & F line could equally be:

Polvara Barron

Vinny Clarkson Duk

Miovski

Well aware this is nigh-on impossibly unlikely, but it’s the kind of change an objective new manager might make.

[ab24_5qh]

A lot of summer signings so it was likely some wouldn't work out......however, one or two have been very poor!

[fine-n-dandy]

We will never have a ‘strongest 11’ because our strongest 11 aren’t suited to this ginger cunts formations/tactics 

 

Cunt is getting the worst out of every single player in squad. That’s actually some fkn impressive achievement if you think about it

He’s fucking hopeless going forward and couldn’t be arsed tracking his man for the second goal yesterday. 

[Don_Corleone]

Roos
Devlin MacDonald Rubezic Jensen
Barron Polvara
Clarkson
Besoujin Miovski Duk

McGrath has done fairly well and is a good player, but I'd rather have Clarkson in for him in the attacking midfield role. Barron is the best we have in a deep lying midfield playmaker role. I think I'd favour Vinny over Morris in the third attacking role.

Hard not to look past this as an option.  To keep repeating the same shit is clearly madness and any new manager coming in would be sitting down with Vinny and forgetting what the fuck has gone on the past year and getting his head back in the game. Get Williams, Dadia to fuck if they're not good enough and get Papa Gueye out on loan to get some game time and see what's available loan wise in CM and left sided positions.

Ruby and MacDonald will not work zero pace there. 

[WesthillWanderersFC]

                    Roos 

Devlin Rubezic MacDonald Jensen. 

              Polvara Barron. 

      McGrath Clarkson Duk 

                   Miovski 

I’d go with that as the squad stands.

In January I’d bring in a centre mid & a left winger. 

[CraigHill]

Roos

Devlin/MacDonald/Jensen/Shinnie

Barron 

Duk / Polvara / Clarkson / McGrath

Miovski

 

Duk and McGrath interchangeable.

Clarkson picking the ball up much further up the field, finding the width, joining the attack, picking out Miovski.

We need width, more than any other position.

After that we need Ramadani replacement (for when Barron’s ego forces his move). Barron signs a new contract, he should be aiming to cement that place.
